Vineland, Florida

Vineland is an unincorporated area in southwest Orange County, Florida. The name is not used much any more, since the City of Lake Buena Vista lies just to the south and is a more well-known name. Orange County officially calls the area Buena Vista North or Orange Center, its original name. However, the name Vineland appears in the names of the main roads leading to the area.

Vineland is mainly residential, with a mosque and a shopping center being the only other land uses. There are under 50 houses in the neighborhood.

The area was given the name Orange Center when it was platted in 1911. Previously it had the name Englewood, probably given to it by the Florida Midland Railroad. The name was changed to Vineland in 1924, supposedly due to confusion with Orange City, Florida.
